It's soon October, which means it's soon time for all northern hemisphere dwellers to crawl into their #Book caves and not emerge again until Mars.

Text above what I assume is a painted picture of Jane Austen..

Jane Austen's works are timeless classics because she knew the real
horrors in life are having to listen to men who think they're better than
you and receiving unannounced visitors.

Drawn image of two old ladies in a cosy room, one climbing a ladder with a stack of books to put in a shelf, the other sitting in a chair built of books reading a book.

Caption: I won't buy any more books until I've read all the ones I've got. I said. Then I laughed and laughed.

Open Book Fountain

This sculpture was created by Kelecsenyi Gergely & engineer Jozsef Szita.
The fountain uses water to create the illusion of turning pages, and serves as a reminder of the importance of physical books.

Location: Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary. On Egyetem Square, in front of the university.

https://reviews.pivic.com/cory-doctorow-enshittification

I've reviewed @pluralistic's coming book, 'Enshittification', the book about the term that Doctorow coined.

The book is sprightly written, funny, filled with facts, and it makes me angry with enshittifiers.

#book #BookReview @bookstodon@a.gup.pe @bookstodon #reading #CoryDoctorow #review

The book cover: black background, white text, the poop emoji in the middle with a black ribbon over its mouth. The ribbon has a few non-alphabetic characters on it, indicating the poop emoji is swearing, likely because of enshittification. I could be the poop emoji about this matter.

Four panel meme of Ron from Parks and Rec in a hardware store talking about Moby Dick.

1: Metaphores? I hate metaphors!
2: That's why my favorite book is Moby Dick!
3: No froo-froo symbolism
4: just a good, simple tale about a man who hates an animal.

That's why I write #SpeculativeFiction things are always right if I'm making everything up 😜😂
Also, did you know to create a fictional world from scratch you have to start with creating the #Multiverse? At least that's what I've been told... 😅

Got my Boox Note Air 4C yesterday! It feels very solid and premium and the e-ink screen is great! I used it a bit before sleep last night.

It's just a bit heavy to hold with a single hand for a long time. But given its screen size it's probably unavoidable.

After some trial and error I figured out a way to get all my kindle books downloaded and DRM stripped. I also managed to use Libby for Boston Public Library!

Gonna read more this winter!

I've been #writing a #book for about 25 years. It's "the" book in that it's scooped up several of my other story ideas and merged it into a single behemoth. It's a speculative #fiction story with an alternate world, some things that characters would call #magic, and an epic story at the heart.

This year I decided that while I won't likely finish until I retire and have time to focus on writing, I can at least bring the process and world-building forward into the public eye.

The Hierophant

You can learn all about my story, follow along, and maybe even give some input along the way.

Was once again reminded of Ursula K. Le Guin's daily schedule, and why this woman was an icon on every single level.

#UrsulaKLeguin #Books #Bookstodon #book #Writing #WritingCommunity

Ursula Le Guin‘s daily schedule

5:30 a.m. - wake up and lie there and think.
6:15 a.m. - get up and eat breakfast (lots).
7.15 a.m. - get to work writing, writing, writing.
Noon - lunch.
1:00-3:00 p.m. - reading, music.
3:00-5:00 p.m. correspondence, maybe house cleaning.
5:00-8:00 p.m. make dinner and eat it.
After 8:00 p.m. - I tend to be very stupid and we won't talk about this.

This was Le Guin's daily schedule first appeared in an interview she gave in 1988 (and more recently reappeared in Ursula Le Guin: The Last Interview and Other Conversations).

🎬 Artist: #ZABOU / #ZabouArtist in City: #NewRoss Co. Wexford (Near O'Hanrahan Bridge) Ireland 🇮🇪 11/2024 - Title: "Small Things Like These" ( #CillianMurphy ) - #Art #Streetart #Mural #Artist #Movie #Book #Literature #ClaireKeegan

Streetartwall. A portrait of actor Cillian Murphy in his role as "Bill Furlong" in the movie "Small Things Like These" was sprayed/painted on the exterior wall of a two-story building. The mural is mainly in shades of green and shows a young man who can be seen up to his shoulders. He wears a black woolly hat and a coat and looks thoughtfully in front of him. Colorful lights can be seen in the background, which extend over a long adjacent wall. Only a part of the mural can be seen in the photo. A simple silhouette of the city is painted next to the portrait.This side will be completed in December 2024 by another artist.
Info: This new mural celebrates both the recent movie and the book (written by Claire Keegan), which tell a powerful story set in New Ross. The book and movie are set in an Irish town in 1985. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal and timber merchant, is facing his busiest time. As he makes his rounds, he senses the past closing in on him - and encounters the complicit silence of a people controlled by the church.

#TGIF! 🇮🇱 Its NOT #GOD'S #HOLY_LAND that is at stake here! It's ✝️ #GOD's People being PRE-MEDITATED MURDERED 🏴‍☠️ in the 1st Degree ON #HIS HOLY LAND!!!! 👹 #WAKE_UP PEOPLE!

🚧 #ALERT! 666 🏴‍☠️ #WARNING! MESSAGE TO THE #GOOD PEOPLE OF 🇮🇱 #ISRAEL FROM DAVIDV. Major Cover-up here folks. Jews are still playing #WACK_THE_MOLE with their selection of a MESSIAH!

🇮🇱 #ISRAEL predicts a 1ST #PSEUDO (FAKE) #MESSIAH #Bar_Kokhba in 132–136 CE | #Bar_Kokhba_#Revolt | #REMEMBER?? WE DO!

🇮🇱 This is the 1st time the #JEWS had FALSELY #predicted the #Messiah.

1ST TIME. #PSEUDO (FAKE) #MESSIAH 132–136 CE | #Bar_Kokhba_#Revolt PREDICTED BY #RABBI_AKIBA (Another #deceived_liar!)

2ND TIME: Israel is CORRECT! Jesus (GOD IN THE FLESH) Christ ( CORRECTLY PREDICTED IN THE OLD TESTIMENT ~BOOK OF PROPHECY~ WHICH HAS BEEN #FULFILLED IN THE #NEW_TESTAMENT - The Fulfillment of Prophecy from the Old testament. These INEPT Murderers only have HALF THE TRUTH and then call themselves intellects is an #INSULT TO EVEN THE #HALF_BRAINED. )

3RD TIME. Since the JEWS have REJECTED their 2nd prediction JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF MAN >> The JEWS have predicted the #ANTICHRIST! it's their Messiah??

AFTER ALL ONLY THE #INSANE CAN #JUSTIFY THE #MURDER OF 40,000 WOMEN AND CHILDREN ON ✝️ GODS LAND #NOT_YOURS! 👹

✝️ Jesus Christ is the #Landlord of the #Holy_Land! Not disgusting #Murdering Jews!

REVEALED the in the NEW TESTIMENT >> #Book_of_Revelations (last book); - (Some categorize #Revelation -- not as a letter -- but as a #book of #prophecy)

THEY ARE #CALLING THE #ANTICHRIST THIER #MESSIAH!!??

The JEWS are now worshiping the UPCOMING OF THE ANTICHRIST. 👹

ARE YOU?

#Money is their #GOD. And Why THEY Murdered #JESUS_CHRIST to begin with..

2000 YEAR OLD #INTERNATIONAL #COLD_CASE_CRIME #SOLVED BY #TASTINGTRAFFIC_LLC. #Crime_Solved!

* The #NAZI'S ARE Guilty of Murdering OVER 5 MILLION Jews.

* But you Jews are Guilty of MURDERING THE CREATOR aka #GOD HIMSELF -- an #Innocent_Man (GOD IN FACT) in the flesh.

* HE has given you #DEPRAVED_JEWS enough time to #REPENT..

* #Disemboweled of ALL #WEALTH!! soon to follow AND IS INFACT YOUR #FUTURE!

✝️ God is a Jealous GOD HE says you cannot worship BOTH! Money 🤑 and #HIM!

YOU SEE FOLKS THE REAL MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST HAS COME, IS #ALIVE TODAY walking #WITHIN AND #AMONG_US --BUT ISRAEL HAS REJECTED #GOD HIMSELF 2000 ago. And why we have LUNATICS murdering OVER 40,000 #Children and #Women. This is Directly from SATAN himself.

Its NOT #GOD'S #HOLY_LAND that is at stake here! It's #GOD's People being Pre Mediated Murder in the 1st Degree ON #HIS #HOLY_LAND!!!! #WAKE_UP PEOPLE! It's Gods land no yours.

YOU HAVE NO LAND. YOU ARE CYPTO JEW GYSPSY (AKA NOMADS AKA NOBODIES)

DO NOT BE #DECEIVED CHILDREN, #NO_ONE #OWNS GODS HOLY LAND BUT GOD HIMSELF.

Anyone who follows THE CURRENT #ISRAEL REGIME will absolutely spend #ETERNITY IN #HELL. Jewish or not!

Israel will in-fact be the capitol of the world in the end. but these current Jews #WILL_NOT_SEE THE #KINGDOM OF #HEAVEN unless they REPENT TO #HIM NOW!

#Allow me to Explain #REALITY A BIT... Both USD and Israel only purpose is to dominate and control the world economy when they cannot even manage or protect their own families!

Both Israel the USA Government are now considered the GREATEST #Failures and #THREAT EVER Known TO #MANKIND WORLDWIDE.

The Current JEWS residing in Israel must be REMOVE BY FORCE IF NESSESSARY >> YOU ARE #ABOMINATIONS TO MANKIND by Committing #GENOCIDE against Gaza (Reality TV >> supported by the USA MAKES EVERY CITZEN ALSO COMPLICT TO MURDER) now being broadcasted throughout the entire world!?

an #ATROCITY WITHIN ITSELF!

OUR 30 YEAR OLD NETWORK IS FAR REACHING TO ALL CORNERS OF THE EARTH SINCE 1999.

You see this is not the first time these #LUNATICS_JEWS have predicted the #Messiah? OH NO its the #3rd #time!?

The first 2 did not work out for thier pre-mediated #MONEY_LAUNDERING_AGENDA..

#Prediction 1" The #Jews 2nd #PSEUDO #Messiah was called #BAR_KOKHBA BY Another #FALSE_PROFIT THEY CALL #Rabbi_Akiba who #FALSELY_PREDICTED ANOTHER MESSIAH WHICH LEFT #ISRAEL IN 100% #DISGRACE. Remember??!!

Major Cover-up here folks. #Jews are still playing #WACK_THE_MOLE with their #selection of a #MESSIAH!

The JEWS TRIED TO RECRUIT #Christians to support their #NEW_MESSIAH #BAR_KOKHBA and the #REAL Christians responded "We Already have a Messiah."

And Why we have 3 dominant religions today. #Tora (Jews Evangelical's >> #white_Supremacist & #Nazi's), #Quran (Muslim) and the #Bible >> OLD (Prophecy) and NEW (Fulfillment of Prophecy) Testament combined. = #Christianity
